Instructions
-
Prepare the Salmon: Start by cleaning the salmon thoroughly, then cut it into bite-sized cubes and set aside.
-
-
Cook the Fettuccini: In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the fettuccini according to package instructions for about 7 minutes, or until al dente. Drain and set aside.
-
Sauté Aromatics: In a large skillet over medium heat, add a generous amount of margarine. Once melted, add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until they are fragrant and translucent.
-
Cook the Salmon: Add the cubed salmon to the skillet, stirring gently until the salmon is cooked through and lightly browned.
-
Add Cream and Cheese: Pour in the full cream milk, stirring to combine. Gradually add the grated cheese, allowing it to melt and create a creamy sauce.
-
Incorporate Vegetables: Add the spinach leaves and shiitake mushrooms (if using) to the skillet, mixing until well combined and the spinach has wilted.
-
Season the Dish: Sprinkle in the ground black pepper and mushroom seasoning (or salt) to taste. Stir continuously until the mixture thickens slightly. For a thicker, creamier sauce, allow it to simmer a little longer without adding extra liquid.
-
Combine with Pasta: If you prefer a more cohesive dish, add the drained fettuccini to the skillet, tossing everything together to ensure the pasta is well coated in the creamy sauce.
-
Adjust and Serve: Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Serve the Salmon Cream with Black Pepper immediately, garnishing with additional grated cheese or fresh herbs if desired.
Indulge in this delectable Salmon Cream with Black Pepper, perfect for showcasing the fresh flavors and creamy textures that make this dish a standout on any dinner table. Enjoy!
